From your use of "unfortunately", I'm gathering you enjoyed the series... so glad!
Season 2 has also been excellent... the Halloween episode is a 22-minute zombie movie that rivals the coolest eps of season 1, and the Christmas ep is shot in old-timey "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"-style claymation! and Dungeons and Dragons episode... oh, it's all such good stuff.
To be fair, there has been 1 "clunker" episode this season that I personally feel was a first for this series, but perhaps I will feel differently if I make myself re-watch the episode.

In that moment, he was FREAKING HOT. How many people as quirky and odd-looking could pull off FREAKING HOT like that?
Yes he deserves an Emmy. The whole show does, it is SO streets ahead!
Abed wasn't just impersonating a gigolo, he was channeling Don Draper from "Mad Men" and in true "Community-Meta" style, the actress who plays Annie is on "Mad Men" which makes it funnier when Annie says that Don Draper is the sexiest character on that show because her character is married to Don's coworker.

I can't even remember what else went on that episode; I need to rewatch to confirm wether this rates as Community's sole "clunker" episode to me.

I didn't catch that at the time, as I never watched MAD MEN, but subsequent posts here made me realize that scene's true coolness!

Utter magnificence. So glad there's at least 1 more episode this season. I didn't think they could top the first paintball episode, but I should have realized this is the brilliance of COMMUNITY I am watching... of COURSE the sequel is going to be even MORE awesome.
The Dean continues to get mucho laughs out of me... everything he does is ridonkulous and funny.
Vicki, Leonard, Fat Neil, Bully Michael, Star-Burns... so so many wonderful lower-tier characters that re-occur...
Not knowing the glory of COMMUNITY is one of the top 5 most horrible things I can think of.

"So why are you still dancing and get out of here?!"
"It's all I know!"
I literally laughed at the top of my lungs...which was one of many times.

mr_cleome has gotten hooked on this show, so I've actually half-watched several eps. It's pretty entertaining. The first one we saw was the "My Dinner With Andre" ep, and then forward from there.
I did space out a little during the paintball saga, though. Sorry.
